Hunger satisfaction:
The more expensive refrigerators carry more foods. They also add a bonus amount of hunger satisfaction.

The more cooking skill you have, the higher the hunger satisfaction.

Hunger is the one need that if left unmet can kill your Sim.

To quickly fulfill your Sim's hunger even with low cooking skills, make a meal using Beef, Pork, Lamb and Potatoes.

If you are low on money and do not have enough to eat, sell your refrigerator, stove, etc. and buy a Fruit Punch Barrel. It will satisfy your hunger about 98%. You can just go to "Drink From Tap" and it will do the rest.

Aphrodisiac effect meal:
Ostrich and Passion Fruit; or Carrots, Lime, Pork and Passion Fruit. Most things made with Ostrich or Passion Fruit will have the aphrodisiac effect, although some have a very negative effect (black hearts) that will lower your Sim's mood.

Energy boost effect meal:
Dangleberry, Yogurt, Strawberries and Cherries; or Ostrich, Eel, Strawberries and Mangosteen (expensive but works the best).

Sandwiches that boost energy (also is a love dish) are Ostrich, Pork, Strawberry, Wheat Bread.

Skills boost effect meal:
Chicken, Onions, Eggs, and Milk.

Carrot, Egg, Milk, White Flour. This will give your Sim a +3 boost on all skills, but it will go down after awhile.

Sick meal:
With any meal you make using Llama, no matter what the effect, any Sim that eats it will vomit.

Raising motives:
To raise your Power, Fun, and Comfort at the same time, power nap on a couch with a television or radio on nearby.

Easy money:
When you need some money and own a "Defective Arcade Genie Lamp" you can keep making wishes and you will get money eventually. However, the genie can also cause fire and make all the characters in the area of the lamp to pee themselves if you make him mad. When he is mad he will come out of his lamp with red colored smoke beneath him. However, if he is giving you something good the smoke will be purple or pinkish. It is best to perform this when you first get a house so that you can get your money and not risk losing any items you have purchased. REMEMBER: If you talk with the genie, he gives you small advice and hints occasionally.

Saving money:
Objectives that require buying furniture can be easily purchased on low ends. Just buy it to complete the goal then delete and get your full money back.

Finding buried treasure:
A Sim can only use the Metal Detector in direct control mode. It is possible to find money, Dangleberries, monkey idols and bottle caps.

Avoid being fired:
If you accidentally miss your ride to work on your second day of missing work, before it says you have been fired, quickly find another job by looking in the newspaper or the Internet. Once you have avoided the call to get fired, you can change back to your previous job without being demoted and getting deducted skill points.

Forced friends:
If you need friends, get a Hot Rock Hot Tub, or move to Tranquillity Falls where they already have one. Invite over who you want to be your friends and get them in the hot tub. Then, put objects around it so they cannot get out. Leave them in there long enough and they will become your friends. REMEMBER: Get out before your hunger goes all the way down or else they will die.

Getting married:
Bring your Friendship up to 80 or 90. If the background is very red and blurry, select "Be on" the socialize menu and go to a bed. Select "Relax" then choose the bed again. Select "Woo whoo" once then press Square to get out of the bed. Select "Socialize" and if you are in love, select "Propose" and hope that the other Sim says yes.
